Well, it looks like AB60 applicants have enhanced the overall passage rate.

Better they have a license than none at all.

Why?
because now if they hit you, they will have insurance and DL to pay for the damages.
They will have insurance? How WILL they? What makes them purchase insurance?

The AB 60 applicants had a higher passage rate! LOl
To play devil’s advocate, could that be because most drivers license applicants that are non-AB 60 are younger, less experienced and nervous teenagers? It would seem that AB 60 applicants may be older, more experienced and have probably been driving for a while. Just a possible explanation, but I don’t have the stats on age, so I’m just hypothesizing.
No need for hypothesizing. The statistics speak for themselves!
you can’t even get close to a dmv to take care of your business because of this crap. they should have set up temporary satellite locations for these yahoos to go to.
I drive without a license
DMV’s proud AB60 stats only illuminate how inadequate their preparations were. A display of massive incompetence that is being paid for by thousands of us who must renew a license at a DMV office.
When they apply they should be arrested and deported haha.
Well her is an anwers to you coment .. there is a lot of people that they have good status in america and the only thing they do is asking for money, stealing, or even worse selling drugs and people who don’t have green cards work realy hard to bring food to their house and some caps stop them for no reason and they took their car just for nothin this opportunity is good for everyone so keep your coment to your self and live your life ………
